first grow, tell me how im doin

this is my first grow. i cannot get any pictures but i have about 100 plants outdoors, i go to water them every other day and they are all coming up with 1 set of serriated leaves so far, and somewhat tall and spindely, i read some other forumns and found out that over watering may cause this, so im going to not water them as much. send me some tips if you have em.

well i came back from weekend at my cabin to find 2 of my plants toppled, so i stood them baCK up and in the process ruined 1... ( i got the rest of em but i hope they dont die so i put a little mound round them to keep them goin straight.. man if anyone has some tips to help them stop growing up and start growing out it would help alot... theyre very tall, only on their 3rd set of leaves and they are getting top heavy.
